CONSTRUCTION

The Southerly 49 is supplied with CE certification and is built to EU certification and conforms to RCD, design category A. The hull is guaranteed against osmosis for 5 years from the date of manufacture.

HULL CONSTRUCTION

Heavy duty GRP moulding, hand laid up to Northshore’s Nordseal laminating system incorporating multi-axial and unidirectional reinforcements. The keel box is an integral part of the hull lay-up and sandwich construction stiffening runs the entire length of the hull topsides. All main bulkheads are bonded into the hull at main lay-up stage along with a stiffening grillage of transverse frames and longitudinal stringers. The engine bearers are also an integral part of the hull structure.

VARIABLE DRAFT

The fixed ballast is an iron casting which acts as a grounding plate and as transverse stiffening for the keel unit. It is fitted into a recess in the hull in the area of the keel box with stainless steel bolts. The aerofoil variable draft keel is cast iron and incorporates a stainless steel pivot at the leading edge. The variable draft keel is raised and lowered by a hydraulic ram powered by an electrically driven pump with a hand operated back-up. Hydraulics are easily accessible for maintenance.
